Graphite susceptor is one of the essential parts in the MOCVD equipment, is the carrier and the heater of the wafer substrate. Its properties of thermal stability and thermal uniformity play a decisive role in the quality of wafer epitaxial growth, which directly determines the uniformity and purity of the layer materials, in a result its quality directly affects the preparation of epitaxy.

Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) refers to a process technology where multiple gaseous reactants at varied partial pressures undergo a chemical reaction under specific temperature and pressure conditions. The resulting solid substance deposits on the surface of the substrate material, thereby obtaining the desired thin film. In traditional integrated circuit manufacturing processes, the obtained thin film materials are generally compounds such as oxides, nitrides, carbides, or materials like polycrystalline silicon, amorphous silicon, etc.

The processing of 4H-SiC substrate mainly includes the following steps:

Currently, many semiconductor devices employ mesa device structures, which are predominantly created through two types of etching: wet etching and dry etching. While the simple and rapid wet etching plays a significant role in semiconductor device fabrication, it has inherent drawbacks such as isotropic etching and poor uniformity, which result in limited control when transferring small-sized patterns. Dry etching, however, with its high anisotropy, good uniformity, and repeatability, has become prominent in semiconductor device fabrication processes. The term “dry etching” broadly refers to any non-wet etching technology used for removing surface materials and transferring micro and nano patterns, including laser etching, plasma etching, and chemical vapor etching. The dry etching discussed in this text specifically pertains to the narrow application of processes using plasma discharge—either physical or chemical—to modify material surfaces.

The ultra-high synthesis temperature and the difficulty of achieving dense sintering of SiC ceramics have limited their development. The sintering process is crucial for SiC ceramics.
